“It was just his nature, he was real community minded,” Linda said.

Nudell spent time on the economic development committee, the housing authority, and many years as a member of the Hettinger City Council. He was even mayor for a few months, filling in for someone who had left the position, though he didn’t seek re-election.

Linda said he never planned to be mayor, and only filled in when there was a need, just another example of his dedication to the community; where there was a need, he was there.

First class of residents start at West River

By COLE BENZ

Record Editor A new era of learning has started at West River Health Services.

About a year ago the hospital, in conjunction with the Center for Family Medicine in Bismarck and the University of North Dakota, joined together for the 1-2 Rural Training Track program. The 1-2 format means the students

spend their first year of residency in an urban area and subsequent year in a rural area. The students spent the first year in Bismarck, and now follow up the rest of the program in Hettinger.

Though resident Dr. Kumari Singh has spent a few days a month in Hettinger in the last 11 months, she and Dr. Jeffery Bruning began work full-time July 5 in Hettinger.

In the past few years, the North Dakota legislation has made some changes to assist rural healthcare facilities. Program Director Dr. Jeff Hostetter previously told the Record that rural healthcare has become a priority with the state.

“Rural healthcare had become a priority of the Department of Health and Human Services because of the depopulation

IN BRIEF

Dalrymple calls special legislative session Gov. Jack Dalrymple today announced that he has issued an executive order, calling for a special session of the North Dakota Legislative Assembly to address necessary General Fund budget adjustments for the 2015-2017 biennium. The Governor has called for the Legislature to assemble in special session on Tuesday, Aug. 2, at 9 a.m.

The state’s latest revenue forecast projects that, without corrective action, the General Fund would fall $310 million short by the end of the current biennium.

Joined by majority leaders in the Capitol, Dalrymple said a combination of additional General Fund budget reductions and legislative approval for contingency funds will resolve the revenue shortfall and balance the General Fund on June 30, 2017. The Governor and majority leaders said the shortfall can be remedied without any reductions to K-12 school funding and without further budget reductions within the Department of Human Services.

Additionally, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will also receive special consideration in the budget plan.

“The overall plan does not include across-the-board spending reductions,” Dalrymple said.

“I have talked with legislative leaders from both parties and we all believe a combination of some targeted, short-term budget adjustments and the use of some contingency funds offers the best path forward to ensure that the budget is balanced when the biennium comes to an end a year from now,” Dalrymple said. “We are fortunate in North Dakota that our Legislature had the foresight to guard against a major revenue downturn by focusing on one-time capital investments rather than ongoing appropriations, and by setting aside strong cash reserves.”

Dalrymple said leading into the special session, he will work with the Office of Management and Budget as well as other agency directors to identify additional savings that minimize impacts on public services. The Governor will forward to the Legislature his recommended budget reductions as well as his recommendations for the use of contingency funds to offset any remaining revenue shortfall.

“We are in a good position to manage the shortfall, and that speaks well for our overall financial strength considering the major impacts on revenue caused by low prices for both oil and agricultural commodities,” Senate Majority Leader Rich Wardner said.

House Majority Leader Al Carlson said he expects the Legislature will move quickly in addressing the shortfall.

“Our goal will be to keep the special session focused and streamlined so that we resolve the shortfall and keep ourselves on solid financial footing leading into the next biennium,” he said.

echoed those sentiments.

The hope is that younger doctors will see the benefits of rural medicine and stay in the smaller communities to practice as aging physicians begin to retire, according to Houle.

“Most residents end up within about 100 miles of where they did their training,” Houle said.

The students spent time in rotation in Bismarck, with a portion of their training being done with their continuity clinic. In the continuity clinic the residents attended to regular patients for ailments and checkups.

Houle said that having new medical residents should help the current staff with their practices.

“Anytime you have a learner in your environment it keeps the regular physicians on their toes,” Houle said. “So now we have learners at a higher level, so we even have to be more on our toes which is okay.”

The duo will perform similar duties with West River. They will spend time at the other satellite clinics through rotations, while getting to know regular patients at the main clinic in Hettinger.

Bruning said his knowledge base and the way he thinks about medicine has grown in the year he has spent in Bismarck.

“Gaining so much knowledge in that year, just as how you actually view a

(Record Photo) patient and do the workup, so that you can figure out what’s going wrong, and then the treatment process and know when you’re comfortable to take care of things and when you have to either refer or ask for help,” said Bruning. “As far as that, yeah I’ve gained a lot of knowledge.”

Bruning said the real adjustment he is making is getting comfortable with the processes West River employs.

Singh said that after being in the program a year she has higher expectations for herself.

“I think that you expect more from yourself because you’re more accountable with things, there’s less physicians,” Singh said. “Therefore you need to have a better understanding of things and be more of an expert at things.”

She has always been at-

NUDELL

FROM PAGE 1

During his tenure with the city council and housing authority, Nudell was instrumental in bringing Killdeer Mountain Manufacturing to this community, and he played an important role in raising the town houses in Hettinger. Linda said those are the two projects her late husband was probably most proud of while serving the city.

Nudell was also a dedicated member of the Hettinger Lutheran Church,

tracted to a smaller hospital and previously told the Record that she wants to work in a rural area some day.

“I like that when you’re in a smaller hospital, it seems that people are more willing to go out of their way and help you out,” Singh said. “It does seem like there’s a lot of teaching here, and there’s good communication.”

Singh said at a larger facility it could take time to get a question answered, but at a smaller facility resources are easier to come by.

A big part of rural medicine is being community oriented, and both doctors fully expect to participate in events around the area.

The main part of their presence in Hettinger will be to further their training, but even small appearances around the community will help them get some

helping out the church and congregation, many times behind the scenes.

Nudell served as co-manager of the Hettinger Theater for a couple of years, something that Linda said Nudell really treasured.

“That was a very hard thing for him to leave,” she said. “He really like working with teenagers so that was a great spot for him there.”

Their children (Matthew and Jean) were both graduates of Hettinger High School, and Linda said they were both very much involved in school activities while their kids were growing up.

Linda said her late husband’s dedica-

facial recognition with the citizens of the area.

Both have already been greeted warmly by the community and are looking forward to getting to know more people. Singh herself was taking a casual walk down the street in Hettinger and was pleasantly surprised to get a warm “hello” from two fellow walkers.

“If you’re going to do rural medicine, it’s good to maybe have that exposure of being in a community where people know each other and they’re familiar with each other,” Houle said.

The doctors are now taking patients and appointments can be scheduled by contacting the clinic.

Houle said the facility is very happy to have the duo in Hettinger as they open the door to a new chapter with West River Health medicine.

tion for Hettinger really derived from his love for southwest North Dakota.

Nudell had been coming to this area since he was 12 years old to deer hunt, and the experience stuck with him.

“He developed a real love for this part of the state,” she said.

Nudell was last employed by West River Health Services as the Environmental Services Manger. His only disappointment was that his time to give to the position was cut short, another example of his dedication to every project he put his mind to.

“He wanted to contribute to the community,” Linda said.

Historical home tours set to He Got a begin for 2016 Big One!

The Mott Gallery of History & Art, along with the John Stern descendants, offers two public tours of the Stern Homestead this summer. The unique German-Russian style homestead, listed on the National Historic Register, is one of the best original examples of this type of structure still standing in North Dakota. It is easily accessible two miles east of Mott on Highway 21.

Constructed in 1907, the home has animal shelter, storage and living area all under one roof. The design from Russia provided convenience, a source

of heat and minimal contact with fierce winter winds that were so prevalent on the Russian Steppe.

As Mott had not yet established a cemetery, the family’s first three infant boys are buried in a tiny cemetery that has been maintained through the years on the property.

Volunteers will be at the site from 1-4 p.m. on Saturday, July 23rd and also in August on Sunday, the 28th to tell the story of the immigrant family and their struggles. Tours are free, but donations are accepted. Signs have been placed

around the property with historical information for visitors as they wander the mowed grounds on the North Dakota prairie.

The Mott Gallery downtown is also open during those hours, with local art and history exhibits, plus a large mural depicting immigrants’ ocean trip from the “old country” to better opportunity in America, and south from Richardton’s railhead to begin farming in the Mott area. For more tour information, call 701-824-2861, 824-2613, or 8242132.

BHSU names students to spring 2016 Dean’s List

West irondisgive other The Office of Academic Affairs at Black proj-Hills State University in Spearfish, S.D. has released the Dean’s List for the spring 2016 com-semester. A total of 690 students maintained a grade point average (GPA) of 3.5

or higher while taking at least 12 credit hours.

Hettinger graduates Bailey Sadowsky and Katie Wolff made the list. Both achieved a 4.0 GPA.

Thank You! We would like to extend heartfelt thanks to those who supported our family at the passing of our mother, Shirley Miller.

Your kinds words and thoughtfulness were very much appreciated as were the flowers, cards, memorials, and wonderful meals.

Many offered their time and talent during Mom’s last years as well. Special thanks to Dr. Josh Ranum, Jaylea Hourigan, Karen Kobilansky, Marla Braaten, Sheila Novak, Barb Maychrzak, Alive Seamands, Lilana Brawner, Laura Cordes, Amber Wolff, and Brenda Butler for their extraordinary care. It meant a great deal to Mom to be able to stay in her own home for so long, and their efforts made this possible. We are also grateful to the staff at the Good Samaritan Society in Mott for their dedication to Mom in her final months.

Our final farewell to Mom was made complete by the work of many of her friends. Thanks to Evanson-Jensen Funeral Home for taking care of the arrangements, to Richard Wyman for conducting the service, to Holly Wyman, Betty Svihovec, and Ada Jean Cornella for the music, and to the ladies of the Methodist Church for preparing and serving lunch after the funeral.

Omdahl By LLOYD OMDAHL

Woodie Guthrie wrote an inspiring song to assure us that this land was our land.

The melody was great but his premise was wrong.

With immigration becoming a major national issue, last week’s column speculated on a conversation that might occur at a meeting of North Dakota’s tribal leaders at which they expressed their perception of immigration.

For four years, I chaired the North Dakota Indian Affairs Commission for Governor George Sinner. It was a frustrating but important experience.

I met regularly with tribal leaders to discuss issues

peculiar to the North Dakota reservations and their 35,000 enrolled members.

Inevitably, the meetings became hand-wringing sessions because every problem we discussed required money and the state policy system was not particularly responsive to funding reservation needs.

We had palmed all responsibility off on the federal government. Indian treaties were federal deals – not ours. The Native-American people were federal people – not ours.

Justice Miller, writing in Kagama v. United States, was right when he said that:”because of the local ill feeling, the people of the States …are often their (Native-Americans) deadliest enemies.”

While we struggle with the unresolved immigration issues of the day, little is said about the European immigration that marched across the continent, gobbling up land occupied by NativeAmericans. The treaties

proved to be valid until gold was discovered or European immigrants wanted more land.

The land we stole became invaluable. We got some of the richest farm land in the world and quadrillions in gold, silver, oil and other precious minerals. If our treaties would have let the Native-Americans keep the mineral rights, they would all be living on easy street.

But we didn’t do that.

While confiscating their land and minerals, we murdered Native-Americans by the thousands. General Custer is still regarded as something of a hero for his mission to “punish” the Indians.

General Custer should have expected no less at the Little Big Horn, considering that none of the treaties before 1876 were honored and Native-Americans were being pushed into the Pacific Ocean.

Today, our killing of Native-Americans would be labeled as genocide in the World Court. The German people have expressed more regret over the behavior of Adolph Hitler than we have over our treatment of Indians.

It is true that we cannot go back and correct the sins of previous generations. However, a historical perspective should give us some acceptance of our ongoing obligation for the consequential problems being suffered by the current generation of NativeAmericans.

We should appreciate that our comfortable homes are built on Indian land; our businesses prosper on Indian land; our oil royalties come from Indian mineral rights; our farms flourish on Indian land. All the while, Native-Americans live on reservations.

North Dakota and America have prospered from Indian land far more than $300 a month in food stamps.

While it is true that the major responsibility for Native-Americans falls on the federal government, it seems that we should be willing to do more as a state to supplement federal programming. After all, Native-Americans are now our citizens, our voters, our people.

Then there are the 11,000,000 “illegal” Mexican immigrants, living mostly in territory we confiscated in the treaty ending the war on Mexico. In that treaty, our “Manifest Destiny” was to steal half of Mexico.

Of course, we have to regain the integrity of our borders but we call these immigrants illegal when they are living in areas of the United States once owned by their ancestors.

In relation to both the Native-Americans and the Mexican immigrants, we can’t change the facts of history. Nevertheless, reflections on the sins of our past should at least temper our attitudes in the present.

There should be some intergenerational justice.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

while flat on their backs? Or choked to death on a street corner for selling loose cigarettes, dead with a broken spine after a “rough ride” to jail?

The argument goes that blacks commit more crimes statistically, so it stands to reason they get stopped more often, ticketed more often, jailed more often. It’s a world unfamiliar to white America. How many tickets would you get if you were pulled over a couple of times every week? In America, a black man is seven times more likely to die at the hands of the police than a white man is. Another undeniable fact is that blacks represent 13 percent of the population and 52 percent of the murders—93 percent of them black-on-black.

Similarly, 82 percent of white murders are committed by other whites.

Some evidence suggests it can be attributed to socioeconomic disadvantages.

A study of violent crime in Cleveland found reducing poverty reduced the crime rate in the same way in predominantly black and white areas. That suggests poverty, not race, is the biggest factor.

Some police departments are working hard to break down divisions between police and the community.

Dallas was one of them.

Police Chief David Brown instituted lethal-force

training every two months, instead of every two years, in an attempt to stem the use of excessive force. But some other police departments are poorly trained and racist. We have a minority problem, all right. A minority of bad cops are staining the reputations of the rest.

In Dallas, officers went out Thursday night to keep the peace. They weren’t wearing riot gear, nothing that might have provoked a peaceful protest. Yet, they found themselves in a shooting gallery, targets of a black man who wanted to shoot white cops.

The situation was a whole lot more complicated than it needed to be. As many as 20 people were carrying firearms legally under Texas open-carry laws. Did they save the day? Nope, they ran. And they nearly got themselves killed. Because when the bullets are flying, any man holding a gun is a suspect. The Dallas Police Department showed incredible restraint under the circumstances.

One black man carrying a semi-automatic rifle during the gunfire wisely turned it in to the police. Because you know what a black man with a gun is? A statistic. A white man shopping for milk and eggs with an AK-47 slung over his shoulder? A Patriot.

Tell me again we’ve conquered racism. I want

Grand River Roundup NEWS By BETTY OLSON

Hot enough for you? Several people asked me that while we were roasting in 100 degree heat at the Boss Cowman in Lemmon Saturday. We only got .30 hundredths of rain this week and the prairie is really dry.

We didn’t get a drop of rain Saturday when they got over an inch at Reva, but thankfully we didn’t get any of that nasty hail either. Are your firefighting units ready to go? We’ll most likely be fighting a lot of fires unless it starts raining soon.

Monday was the 4th of July and we spent Independence Day in Hettinger.

Guy and Megan and boys came from Wyoming to spend a few days at the ranch with us and we all went to Hettinger for the parade and the picnic in the park. Sage and Alaina and their girls invited us to spend the afternoon at their house, along with several of Alaina’s family.

Nathan, Kylee, and Britton Stadheim and Carrie Stadheim and her kids came and Grandma Polly brought Josh and Brandy Stadheim’s two girls. The kids spent the afternoon having water fights in the wading pool and we all pigged out on the delicious roast Sage cooked in his smoker. The kids shot off a bunch of fireworks at the house before we left for home. Guy and Megan picked up their dog at the ranch and drove back to Wyoming that night. It was a great Fourth of July!

Tuesday Reub and I were back in Hettinger. He had his appointment with Mary Eggebo and I went up to the clinic to get the stitches taken out from the last surgery when they took the four pins out of my thumb.

I also started therapy, but I think my thumb is always going to be stiff. But hey, I can grab things with it now, so that’s a big plus!

Tommy and Briana Fabris had their third baby girl Wednesday, July 6 in Hettinger. Little Ava Jane

weighs 7lb. 7oz. and is 19 ½ inches long. Congratulations to the Fabris family!

There were four funerals of our friends this week.

Florence (Peck) Papka, 98, passed away July 2nd at Sturgis Regional Senior Care. Her memorial service was 10:30 Wednesday morning at the FidlerIsburg Funeral Chapel in Spearfish. Florence will be inurned at the Rose Hill Cemetery with her husband Leland, her son Orval, and Orval’s wife Mary. I met Darlene Welch and Donald Krambeer in Buffalo and rode down to Florence’s funeral with them.

Kent Wilkinson caught a ride home with us after the lunch in Evans Park so he could do chores and I gave him a ride back to the ranch.

On the way to Florence’s funeral I heard on the radio that Esther Blomberg’s funeral was in Belle Fourche at the same time as Florence’s service and we hadn’t even heard that Esther had died.

Esther Blomberg, 93, died June 28 at the David M. Dorsett Health Care Center in Spearfish. Esther married Hank Gibson and they had 2 boys, Dennis and Harold.

Hank died in 1949. Later Esther married Dad’s cousin Jack Blomberg and they had 2 boys, Alan and Chad. Her son, Dennis died of a tragic accident at the ranch that Esther and Jack owned. Her funeral services were at the St. James Lutheran Church in Belle Fourche with inurnment at the Pine Slope Cemetery in Belle Fourche.

The memorial service for our old friends Gary and Fielding Phillips was Thursday at Besler’s Cadillac Ranch south of Belle Fourche.

Gary Phillips, 67, of Belle Fourche died Dec. 10, 2015 at the Rapid City Regional Hospital. Fielding Phillips, 78, of Sturgis passed away at the University of Colorado Hospital in Denver on February 20 after a short illness. The five Phillips brothers were raised in the Slim Buttes and Fielding and Gary were preceded in death by their parents, Chester and Leah (Vroman) Phillips. Leah was Ned Vroman’s daughter and they were neighbors of my father’s family. Leah and Dad were in the same

grade at the Rock Ranch School built by my great grandfather, Carl Hallan. All five of the Phillips boys also attended the Rock Ranch School across the road from Blair Hamilton’s.

There were a lot of rodeo folks at the Phillips funeral and most of them had a story or two to tell about the brothers. Pete Buer had the memorial service and sang some really good songs before we all ate supper together.

The Boss Cowman parade was Saturday in Lemmon and I rode along with Rep. Sam Marty to throw candy at little kids one last time.

The parade was followed by the unveiling of John Lopez’s sculpture of Ed Lemmon in front of the beautiful mural of cattle being driven up from the Grand River painted by Dotun Popoola and Imafidor Ayodeji Jonathan from Nigeria.

These artists are absolutely amazing! Nathan Sanderson was there to autograph copies of his new book about Ed Lemmon, “Controlled Recklessness”. I just finished reading Nathan’s book and highly recommend it! John was also autographing his book featuring his fabulous sculptures.

to believe. I want to see that mountain top.

One American adult in 35 is either in jail or otherwise under the jurisdiction of the judicial system in the Land of the Free. One out of every three black men will end up in prison.

Prisons are privatized. You know what private businesses need? Customers. So lobbyists are at the front of the line to make sure innocuous offenses are punished with jail time. Bad judges get kickbacks for locking ‘em up

and throwing away the key.

Who pays? We all pay.

We don’t have to agree about the root causes. The ills of society are complex.

Anyone who can claim with certainty that he knows the exact cure is dumber than the rest of us, who admit we don’t know all the answers.

But we can agree we have a big problem here.

We all stopped breathing Thursday night. It’s time to catch our breath. We need to remember the shooter in Dallas was no more repre-

sentative of Black Lives Matter than rogue officers are representative of all lawmen.

The past week’s events have our attention and that should give us hope. Historically, this country manages to do better—albeit at a maddeningly slow pace, to paraphrase Winston Churchill, “after (we’ve) exhausted all the alternatives.”

I’d like to believe that’s still true. Are we talking, yet? © Tony Bender, 2016

Champion Rabbit Hat Tips By DEAN MEYER

Guest Columnist

Hello, Tis the fair season. Now, I don’t mean weather wise.

As far as the weather goes, it is the season when farmers and ranchers have an eye cast on those thunderheads building up in the west. And living with the fear that that 90 degree day will suddenly produce a chilling breeze and a hail storm can destroy a beautiful crop. I mean it is the season for county fairs to kick off.

I don’t think there is anything much better than a county fair. I mean, I’m not talking a big deal like the State Fair, but a little deal.

Like the Grant County Fair, or McKenzie County Fair.

Where the Homemakers, Lutheran Women, and the Lucky Leaf 4-H Club man the food booths. Where the steers, heifers, chickens, and rabbits are housed within clucking distance of each other. Where there are turtle races, petting zoos, rodeos, and a parade down Main Street.

In Grant County you can place a friendly wager on the turtle races. In McKenzie County you might buy the winning bronc rider. In Slope County you can watch the rodeo or 4-H sale while sipping on a bloody mary.

In Harding County, you can rodeo, enter the watermelon eating contest, street dance, and pick up all the free zucchini you want at the produce display.

Nearly all counties have homemade apple pie, juicy burgers, crop displays, and homemade ice cream.

I grew up showing steers at 4-H and FFA. Usually halter broke a few days before the show. And Dad would sit just back of the crowd on Cim (short for Cimarron) with his rope down, waiting to rope the steer after he had drug me through the crowd and escaped. Seems a little funnier now than it did then.

I usually had the only steer in the show that had that purple stuff all over his wire cuts. Never did do real well

in showmanship.

When our kids were showing steers one year we had a couple bad ones. I mean real bad. They were Chi-Angus steers, with about an eighth pure devil.

I mean they would kick, chase, and honest… They would bite. I never saw anything like it. You know how many young kids cry when they realize their steer is meant for the barbecue. Will and Carmen named their steers T-Bone and Ribeye! If it wasn’t for a certain vet and some wonder drugs, I don’t think we could have shown them. But that is another story.

Our highlight of the fair circuit one year was the Harding County fair down in South Dakota. I mean that fair has the toughest competition in the world.

Especially when it comes to rabbits. If you’ve ever driven across Harding County, you know there is a huge supply of rabbits, deer, and antelope.

And I am proud to announce that our granddaughter, Gracy, won the Grand Champion girl rabbit at the Harding County Fair!

We always knew that girl was meant to be a champion, and now she has a trophy to prove it! And since then, both Gracy and Gage have won the watermelon eating contest! Genetics of good eaters is passed on.

Speaking of Harding County and fairs. It seems there is an old story about a couple of steer wrestlers from that area, whom

one time stole the Grand Champion turkey at the big Fort Worth Stock Show.

They proceeded to feast on roast turkey, not realizing till afterwards, when they saw it in the paper. $50,000 TURKEY STOLEN FROM STOCK SHOW! One of the cowboys told his sister it tasted just like rabbit!

One of these same guys pulled a switch on a clown at the Houston Astrodome.

The clown had an act where he would turn these two domestic ducks out of a gunnysack. His dog would haze them around and herd them back into the sack.

One year, after weeks of planning and trapping, our cowboy took two wild ducks, captured in the Dakotas, to Houston. Under the veil of darkness, with a little help from a case of beer, the switch was made. The clown came out, dumped his ducks out, and away they went, flying around the Houston Astrodome! With twentyfive thousand people going nuts, and a Border Collie dog going insane!

Wish I could have been there!

Later, Dean

Harding County came to Scranton on Dec. 18 and 19 to take on the Nighthawk boys and girls’ basketball teams, and left going 0-2 for their efforts.

Hettinger-Scranton’s boy’s basketball team faced the Ranchers first and pulled out a 64-62 win. The Nighthawk’s full court pressure initially gave the Ranchers trouble as they quickly fell behind 12-0. On top

of that, their 6’4” center Mason Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25.

With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-

26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points.

They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied.

The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot.

Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

Nighthawks.

Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points.

The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53.

Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks.

The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the

Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half.

They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses.

Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.

OBITUARY MARVIN HUBER

DAN NUDELL

Marvin Adolph Huber, 80, Mandan, North Dakota, passed away Monday, July 11, 2016, at his home. A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00 p.m., Friday, July 15, 2016, at Cornerstone Community Church, Bismarck with Rev. Keith Ritchie officiating. Burial will be in the North Dakota Veterans Cemetery, Mandan.

Marvin was born July 7, 1936, at Herreid, South Dakota, to Adolph and Dorothy (Pudwill) Huber. He was raised and educated in Pollock, South Dakota, where he graduated from high school. Marvin served in the US Army, and on July 7, 1964, he married Donna Hoffart in Onaka, South Dakota. He farmed for a few years before joining the railroad. He worked for Milwaukee Railroad and Burlington Northern Railroad before retiring in 2000. He also installed carpet as a part-time job for many years. Marvin enjoyed fishing, golfing, and anything outdoors.

He is survived by his wife, Donna; two sons, Lee (Colleen) Huber, Spartanburg, South Carolina, and Rodney ( Joyce) Huber, Rapid City, South Dakota; and two grandchildren, Rick Huber and Tony Huber.

Marvin was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Rosie Faw and Virginia Baer; and one brother, Leland.

Please sign his guestbook and share memories at www. dawiseperry.com. Funeral arrangements are being made with DaWise-Perry Funeral Services, Mandan, North Dakota.

Daniel James “Dan” Nudell, 59, of Hettinger, ND passed away at the West River Regional Medical Center in Hettinger on July 6, 2016.

Service of Remembrance will be Sunday, July 10, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. at the Hettinger Lutheran Church. Rev. Kathleen Dettmann will officiate. Visitations will be from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 9 at the Centennial Chapel of Evanson Jensen Funeral Homes in Hettinger and one hour prior to the funeral on Sunday afternoon at

Nudell the Church. Dan’s ashes will be buried at the Hettinger Cemetery at a later date.

Daniel James Nudell was born July 11, 1956 to Donna (Sletmoe) and Larry Nudell in Fargo, ND. He grew up in Valley City, Turtle Lake, Carrington and Harvey ND, graduating from Harvey High School in 1974.

He attended North Dakota State University. There he met Linda Bliss from Scranton, ND. They married in 1979. They lived in Mayville, Fargo and Horace ND before settling in Hettinger for 27 years.

Matthew was born in 1983.

The look on Dans face when

he first held that baby was priceless! That same look was there when Jean was born in 1989.

Dan finished his bachelors degree in Animal Science at NDSU in 1986. This led to a dream job as the sheep development coordinator in Hettinger. He liked nothing more than farm/ranch visits and meetings with producers. He returned to NDSU for a masters degree in agricultural economics and continued to work for NDSU as a researcher until 2012.

Dan believed in hard work. Besides his work for NDSU, he also did construction, worked as a department manager for Target store in Fargo, and as a contractor. He was proud to be co-manager of the Hettinger Theater for two years, and to drive the train for United Grain Corp.

In 2015 he accepted the position as Environmental Services Manager for West River Health Services. He was able to use his varied skills and was disappointed that time there was cut short.

He loved his co-workers and the challenges of the position.

Dan was a dedicated community leader. He served on the Hettinger city council, as the mayor, on the economic development committee and the housing authority. He was a member of Hettinger Lutheran, where he contributed by doing jobs mostly behind the scenes, and entertaining Pat and Pastor Kate.

Dan was a loyal friend to many of all ages and walks of life. He was an exceptional husband, father, grandpa, brother, uncle and son-in-

law.

Dan loved southwest North Dakota, since his first hunting trips with his dad and grandpa as a boy. He planted many trees, raised horses, calves and chickens.

After years of planning, he had started to build a dream house in the country to share with his wife. He wanted to live out many more years on the prairie, under the big open sky he loved so much.

He wanted to teach his grandkids all about living on the prairie.

Dan is survived by his wife, Linda; his son Matthew and daughter-in-law Amy of Gambrills MD and his daughter Jean of Hettinger; his grandchildren Lucas, Emma and Cora Nudell; his sisters and brothers-inlaw Nancy and Dale Such of Fremont, CA and Barbara and Doug Whelan of Grafton ND; his sisters-in-law and their husbands: Jolyn Bliss, Dickinson ND; Brenda and Dennis Schaible, Minot, ND; Dianne and Tony Pierce, Scranton, ND; and Loretta and Elroy Sperle, Savage, MN. He is also survived by his nephews and nieces: Kelsey, Grace, Krista, Derek, Rachelle, Andrea, Chelsea, Mallorie, Nathan, Brandon, Kyle and Kevin, and their families.

He leaves behind many friends and coworkers who will also miss him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, grandparents, brother-in-law Lyle Bliss, aunts Lea Hammerschmidt and Char Nudell.

Condolences to Dan’s family can be sent through our website at www.evansonjensenfuneralhome.com.

A Water Quality Test is Best When hot, summer weather causes ponds to run low, the potential for toxic bacteria in the water increases.

Poor water quality can impact livestock health negatively, resulting in decreased water consumption, reduced feed intake, severe illness and possibly death.

A water quality test is available through the NDSU Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at www.vdl.ndsu.edu.

AND THE WINNERS ARE

18 kids won bikes sponsored by area businesses FIND IT ONLINE See more photos from the Naja Shriner Circus in Hettinger

shrine unit for nearly 10 years.

There were animals, acrobats and clowns. Camel, horse, and elephant rides were available before and during intermission. Cotton candy and concessions sweetened the evening for kids and adults. Kids also enjoyed sitting in the face-painting booths, with many getting decorated before the show started. Eighteen bicycles were given away too. Area businesses sponsored each bike, candy bars were sold during the show and winning tickets were hidden in the packaging of select bars.

After such a long absence in Hettinger, Miller said that his unit was really happy with how the whole evening unfolded.

“We had a really good turnout,” Bran-

don Miller said. “Everyone in the West River Unit was happy with the turnout, as you could see that day [I don’t think] we could fit too many more people.”

Miller told the Record that after seeing how many people attended, their group is going to discuss bringing it back to Hettinger for future shows.

The show is made possible by area businesses. Miller said that a group of Shriners travel to each community and receive donations, that’s what pays for the production.

“It takes a small army” to make the show happen, according to Miller.

But money from admission, concessions and souvenirs goes to the Shriner’s charitable endeavors, their hospitals.

The Shriner’s Hospitals specializes in helping children ages birth to 18 years with orthopedic disabilities, spinal cord

injury rehabilitation, cleft lip and cleft palate, and burn injuries. Eligible kids are afforded healthcare and transportation by the Shriners free of charge until they age out of the system. The Shriners also pay for transportation for one family member to ride along with the child in need of the medical services. There are 22 Shriner hospitals throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The Naja unit sends kids to hospitals in Minneapolis, Chicago and Cincinnati.

Miller said that if you know of a child that may be in need of their healthcare services shouldn’t be afraid to contact the organization to see if they qualify.

Anyone with questions can contact the national hotline at 1-813-281-0300. He also said that anyone interested in joining the organization can contact the unit’s president Kel Brockel at 605-2445486.

Two Post 115 pitchers combine for no-hitter to start week-long marathon of games

By COLE BENZ

Record Editor July 6 Post 115 Bears - 10 Crosby Cubs - 2 Two Post 115 hurlers combined to throw a nohitter against Crosby. Brandon Pierce took the win and Jarad Mattis relieved him to beat the Cubs 10-2 in a rainshortened six-inning game.

Pierce started on the mound for the Bears and went four strong innings. He struck out seven and only walked three. Hoping to preserve his ace, head coach Nolan Dix took him out of the game and sent Mattis to the mound.

“I took Brandon out, because I’m not going to kill his arm,” Dix said.

Mattis picked up where Pierce left off with two strong innings of his own. He had two walks and struck out four.

The Bears’ bats came alive too.

Pierce went 4-for-4 and

had two doubles and four RBI. Hudson Pierce also was 4-for-4 and had three RBI. Jacob Dix went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored. Dan Baesler went 2-for-2 with two walks and Cole Osendorf went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored.

The second game of the double-header was canceled due to the weather. Dix only brought 10 players with him.

To cut down on travel time for both squads, they met at a neutral site and played in Watford City.

July 7 Game 1 Post 115 Bears - 18 Stanley Blue Jays - 10 Brandon Pierce had quite the day at the plate in the first game of a double header against the Stanley Blue Jays.

Pierce went 4-for-5 and had four doubles. He also added six RBI for the game.

Jacob Dix started the game and went three innings and had four strikeouts. Jarad Mattis and Cole Osendorf came on in relief and each

tallied three strikeouts.

Osendorf had a hot bat too, going 4-for-5 with two stolen bases and scored four times.

Hudson Pierce went 4-for5 and Kyle Burwick went 3-for-4.

Game 2 Post 115 Bears -10 Stanley Blue Jays - 24 Walks hurt the Bears in the second contest of the double header against the Blue Jays.

Dix put four different pitchers on the mound en route to a 17-walk, 18-earned run loss to Crosby.

Osendorf started and was relieved by Jaxon Mellmer, followed by Ryan Sime and Hudson Pierce.

The Bears kept it close until through the third inning though. Only down 10-8, the Blue Jays scored five times in the fourth.

The Blue Jays grabbed another run in the fifth inning before putting the game away in the sixth and final inning with eight runs.

Brandon Pierce stayed hot at the plate and highlighted

the Bears’ hitting after going 3-for-4 with another three doubles.

Osendorf went 3-for-4 and Jacob Dix had another two hits.

Jarad Mattis went 2-for4 and Hudson Pierce went 1-for-4 with two RBI. July 10 Game 1 Post 115 - 0 Hazen - 7 During the final home stand of the season, the Bears were outscored 19-2 during the double header at

Mirror Lake Ballpark against the Hazen Astros.

Shaky defense led to six errors behind a strong pitching performance by Damon Mellmer hurt the Bears in the first game. The two teams combined for only 5 hits en route to a 7-0 loss for the Bears.

Mellmer pitched a complete game with three strikeouts. He took the loss and gave up four earned runs.

The Astros had a stellar pitching performance too, the Bears didn’t reach base

safely with a hit until the fourth inning.

Alex Bartholomay and Cole Osendorf combined to go 2-for-6 on the day, the only two hits for the Bears.

Game 2 Post 115 - 2 Hazen - 12 Walks hurt Post 115 in the second contest against Hazen. Jaxon Mellmer and Ryan Sime pitched into the bottom of the fifth inning when the Astros won on the 10-run rule. Both pitchers combined to walk seven. The Bears out hit Hazen 7-5.

July 12 Game 1 Post 115 - 20 Renville County - 5 The Post 115 Bears had probably their best twogame series, according to head coach Nolan Dix. Brandon Pierce went the distance and got the win in a 5-inning complete game.

He tallied seven strikeouts and went 4-for-5 at the plate with four RBI and three runs scored.

Jacob Dix had the big bat not he day, going 3-for-5 with a double and a home run. He drove in six runs and scored three runs.

Jarred Mattis went 3-for-5 and scored three times. Jordan Dilse went 2-for-3 with three runs scored.

Game 2 Post 115 - 13 Renville County - 3 Jarad Mattis was on the bump to start the second game and went five innings, getting the complete-game win after the Bears closed out Renville County with the 10-run rule again. Mattis had seven strikeouts and allowed three earned runs. He also went 3-4 at the plate.

Cole Osendorf went 3-for4 with three runs scored.

Hudson Pierce went a perfect 4-for-4 and had three RBI. Brandon Pierce went 3-for-4 with three RBI and Alex Bartholomay went 2-3 and scored once.

“We hit the ball well, we pitched well,” Dix said.

“Kind of two all-around good games.”

Dix said this was probably the best two-game series of the season, especially considering Renville County was currently in the No. 3 spot in the standings.

Dix and his team open up the regional tournament on Tuesday, July 19. The pairings weren’t available at the time this went to press.

Defense wins championships, right?

Weekly Viking Roundup By JORDAN WRIGHT For The Record

Last week, we took a look at the Minnesota Vikings’ offensive line depth chart.

If you happened to miss the article, you can find it on my Facebook page through the web address that’s listed below.

The Minnesota Vikings finished the 2015 season seventh in the league with 43 sacks, and many of those were because of the defensive ends. Historically the Vikings have had great

defensive ends; from Carl Ellers and Jim Marshall of the purple people eaters in the 70s, to Chris Doleman and the 1989 squad that finished second in NFL history with 71 sacks. While the Vikings’ defensive ends in 2016 might not be household names, there is no doubt that once again the Vikings have an impressive collection of talent at the position.

Starters: Everson Griffen and Brian Robison When Everson Griffen signed a 5-year, $42.5 million contract in 2014, many around the league were wondering what the Vikings were thinking. Since the signing, however, Griffen has started all but one game while racking up double digit sacks each season.

Griffen was given a grade of 82.9 by Pro Football Focus and also earned his first Pro

Bowl in 2015. Only 28 years old, Everson should be a staple at right defensive end for a long time to come.

Brian Robison has been starting at left defensive end since 2011. While he has yet to put up double digit sacks in a season, Robison brings value to the team by other means. Besides providing a veteran presence on the field as well as in the locker room, Robison is incredibly reliable, having only missed one start over the past five seasons. At 33 years old, Robison doesn’t have many years left in the tank, but he is still a quality pass rusher who will likely play another year or two before retiring.

Backups: Danielle Hunter and Stephen Weatherly Last year, Danielle Hunter was drafted in the third round out of LSU as a player with vast and untapped

With North Dakota’s recent growth in walleye fisheries, a record 150-plus lakes across the state were stocked with nearly 11 million walleye fingerlings earlier this summer.

Jerry Weigel, North Dakota Game and Fish Department fisheries production and development section leader, said this was made possible by record production of 10.4 million fingerlings at Garrison Dam National Fish Hatchery.

“This is probably the most walleyes ever produced at a single hatchery anywhere in the country,” Weigel said. “Only one time in the past 20 years has 10 million fingerlings been reached.”

Valley City National Fish Hatchery also had a good year, shipping 1.7 million fingerlings. “Talk about bumper crops,” Weigel said. “This was a great year for both hatcheries.”

While the 30-day old fish averaged 1.25 inches, the cumulative weight tallied nearly 8,500 pounds, which made for an intense couple of weeks delivering fish.

In total, 154 lakes and rivers were stocked in North Dakota, including Devils Lake (1.7 million fingerlings) and Lake Sakakawea (1.3 million).

Some other waters to receive fingerlings were Stump Lake (518,000); Lake Darling (461,000);

Heart Butte Reservoir (320,000); Lake Ashtabula (305,000); Lake Audubon (234,000); Pipestem Reservoir (203,000); and Alkaline Lake (200,000).

One common observation Weigel noted while traveling across the state was the number of anglers fishing from boats and from shore.

“You now see boats and trailers in counties you never did before. We are fortunate to have the production capability at the hatcheries to adequately stock and maintain these fisheries statewide,” Weigel said. “Given all the new fishable waters across North Dakota’s prairie, there’s never been a better time to fish in the state.”

scheme. Standing 6-foot 4-inches, weighing 267, and running a 4.61 40-yard dash (which is the second fastest at this year’s combine for defensive ends), Weatherly will have the coaches anxious to see what he can do.

On the bubble: Scott Crichton, Zach Moore, Denzell Perine, Justin Trattou Last season, the Vikings kept five defensive ends on their opening day roster, so there is a chance that one of the players on the bubble could make the final 53. In 2015 however, Griffen received 933 defensive snaps, Robison got 962, and Hunter got 426, which left only 160 snaps to be divided between the remaining players.

Scott Crichton was drafted in the third round of the 2014 draft, but he hasn’t shown much promise when he’s seen the field, which has

led to the drafting of Hunter and Weatherly. Trattou was re-signed this offseason, but only to a one-year contract and doesn’t factor into the Vikings’ long-term plans.

Zach Moore is a local guy who the Vikings got from the Patriots last season and could be a candidate for the practice squad. Denzell Perine is an undrafted rookie who played linebacker in college, but will make the shift to defensive end in the NFL. Next week we will be taking a look at the defensive tackles. If you have anything specific you’d like to know about them, or if you have any comments or questions about the defensive ends, reach out to me!

potential. A player who was not expected to contribute for a couple years, Hunter impressed coach Zimmer enough that he became the primary backup as a rookie.

Any highlight you watch of him will show his lightning fast burst off the line and the quickness to get around offensive tackles, but Hunter was also given the highest run defense grade of any Vikings defensive end in 2015. At only 21 years old, Danielle will serve another year as the primary backup before stepping into Brian Robison’s spot in 2017.

This past draft, Stephen Weatherly, similar to Hunter last year, was a mid-round draft pick who was picked based on potential. Weatherly played linebacker at Vanderbilt, but will be moved to defensive end in the Vikings’ 4-3 defensive

The Hettinger Farmer’s Market Hettinger

Assembly of God to hold Vacation Bible School

By COLE BENZ

Record Editor The 5th annual farmer’s market kicked off in Hettinger on Wednesday, July 13 in the empty lot on the corner of Main Street and Adams Avenue.

The group will gather weekly to sell produce, canned goods and other items from around the community.

Items this week included beets, onions, peas, lettuce, choke-cherry and strawberry-rhubarb jams, pies, cookies, and doughnuts

The first event was dedicated to the late Anders Christensen, a local market and garden enthusiast.

To open up the season, the market also had a lunch available. Serving from noon to 4 p.m., roast beef, lamb, and goat sandwiches were on the menu along with potato salad.

Information on the market each week can be heard on KNDC or by liking their Facebook page at Hettinger’s Farmers Market.

If you’re interested in participating contact Kat at 701567-6635.

Hettinger Assembly of God is hosting Vacation Bible School July 17-21 from 6 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. each evening. All children from four years of age through the sixth grade are welcome to attend.

A team of students from Trinity Bible College will be presenting the program “Power Up” which was created by the staff of the Bible College.

The children will be learning about the love of Jesus through music, Bible stories, crafts and games. It will be a time of fun, excitement and surprises.

A program will be held Thursday night for the parents and the public to see what has been learned.

For more information or to register your children please call 701-440-8899. Pre-registration is not required for your child to attend.
